Since 1992, the Aquatics Center and Nature Museum. building has been home to some our most diverse programs. Whether you enjoy swimming, or learning about nature preservation, this facility has something for everyone.

We offer a pool with over 200,000 gallons of water for summer use; and a brand new state of the art Splash Pad. The Splash Pad has a complete waterplay system complete with a 14' Blue Heron named Hector who is ready to drop his water bucket on you! Our pool has a diving board and gets as deep as 12.5 feet for more experienced swimmers. Grassy areas for sunbathing make this facility more than just a place to swim, and "Splashers" concession stand makes cooking in the summer unnecessary!
